3. Installation

To activate the extension you have to set ext_bad_behaviour to 1 in the the Secondary Config, you can do this via the Admin panel.


Admin panel: Extensions -> Bad Behaviour -> Settings


That's all - now go to your site and check if it is still working.

3.1. Configuration


still uses the bb_settings.conf
config/bb_settings.conf

; settings.ini

[settings]
display_stats = true
strict = false
verbose = false
logging = true
httpbl_key = ""
httpbl_threat = 25
httpbl_maxage = 30
offsite_forms = false
reverse_proxy = false
reverse_proxy_header = "X-Forwarded-For"
;reverse_proxy_addresses[] = 
;reverse_proxy_addresses[] =

Just as a reminder, if you use CloudFlare, Incapsula, Amazon Elastic Load Balancer, Azure Load Balancer, Google Cloud Load Balancing, or similar services on your site, you may need to enable the Reverse Proxy option in Bad Behavior’s settings, or many of your visitors and search engines will be blocked.

3.2. Whitelist


still uses the bb_whitelist.conf
config/bb_whitelist.conf

; whitelist.conf
;
; Inappropriate whitelisting WILL expose you to spam, or cause Bad Behavior
; to stop functioning entirely! DO NOT WHITELIST unless you are 100% CERTAIN
; that you should.

; IP address ranges use the CIDR format.

[ip]
; Digg whitelisted as of 2.0.12
ip[] = "64.191.203.0/24"
ip[] = "208.67.217.130"
; RFC 1918 addresses
ip[] = "10.0.0.0/8"
ip[] = "172.16.0.0/12"
ip[] = "192.168.0.0/16"

; User agents are matched by exact match only.

[useragent]
useragent[] = "Mozilla/4.0 (It's me, let me in)"

; URLs are matched from the first / after the server name up to, but not
; including, the ? (if any). The URL to be whitelisted is a URL on YOUR site.
; A partial URL match is permitted, so URL whitelist entries should be as
; specific as possible, but no more specific than necessary. For instance,
; "/example" would match "/example.php" and "/example/address".

[url]
url[] = "/example.php"
url[] = "/openid/server"
